TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
 
CROSSCURRENTS IN THE STOCK AND BOND MARKETS
 
Broadly speaking, the stock and bond markets followed different paths during the
first half of 1996. The stock market's rise was primarily due to the economy's
strength and robust corporate profits, providing the foundation for positive
returns in the stock market. Growth stock funds, in particular, produced strong
returns as the demand for small capitalization stocks increased and record
amounts of money flowed into equity mutual funds.
 
The bond market moved in a different direction. Fears of "too much strength" in
the economy and the potential increase in inflation pushed long-term interest
rates up approximately 1%, from 5.95% to 6.87%. This increase in yields during
the first half of the year resulted in negative total returns for bonds with
maturities over four years. On the other hand, after a difficult 1995, the
municipal bond market fared well, with municipal bonds outperforming their
taxable counterparts by up to 2%.
 
THE STOCK MARKET
 
The stock market's rise was driven by three key elements: strong corporate
profit, attractive valuations and a positive flow of investments into equities.
A review of these factors suggests that the market may drift for a period,
although the fundamental backdrop remains positive.
 
The strength and sustained growth of corporate profits is the underlying support
for stock prices. Although the rate of profit growth is expected to slow from
double digits to more normal levels, corporate profit growth is expected to
continue through this year and into 1997. As expectations for earnings growth
become moderate in the short term, stock prices are likely to adjust
accordingly. Nevertheless, companies demonstrating the ability to sustain
profitability and increase earnings over the long run could be rewarded with
higher stock prices.
 
1995's declining interest-rate environment and rising profits have helped stock
price valuations remain attractive over the last 18 months. In the recent
environment of rising interest rates, company price-to-earnings ratios have been
on the higher side relative to historical standards. Other valuation measures
such as price-to-book value and dividend yield may be considered higher than in
the past as well. Barring a sharp rise in interest rates, our outlook for the
equity market is for increasing stock prices merited by strong corporate
earnings growth.
 
Increased cash flows into equities is the third component of the market's rise.
Net purchases of equity mutual funds have been at record levels since the start
of the year, spurring demand for stocks. Meanwhile the supply of stocks has
become somewhat limited due to the number of mergers and acquisitions, as well
as stock repurchase plans.
 
THE BOND MARKET
 
Interest rates rose as a number of factors suggested an increase in inflation.
Worries over wage pressures, signs of a strong economy and the anticipation that
the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") would shift to credit tightening and higher
interest rates sparked inflation fears. The possibility exists that a quarter
percentage point increase in the federal funds target rate
 
     2
<PAGE>
(now at 5.25%) could be announced at the August 20, 1996 Federal Open Market
Committee ("FOMC") meeting. If so, this will be the Fed's first interest-rate
increase in 17 months. If the recent past is any guide, the fixed income market
and financial institutions are likely to respond to this move with moderate
across-the-board interest-rate increases, led by intermediate rates in the two-
to five-year maturity range.
 
Economic growth ultimately could slow to a more moderate and sustainable 2% to
3% rate in response to the first half's rising interest rates, weakened
household finances and more cautious lending practices.
 
Bond market conditions so far this year were similar to that of 1994's, when the
yield on 30-year Treasury bonds rose more than 1.80% amid successive rounds of
tightening credit by the Fed. However, if the Fed does begin to tighten credit
this year, the increase in bond yields is not expected to be as significant as
it was in 1994. The reasons are that long-term interest rates are already up
more than a percentage point this year, the target federal funds rate would be
higher and bank credit standards are being tightened. In addition to this, the
economy's aging growth cycle indicates that less tightening will be needed to
slow the economy.
 
Therefore, we believe the risk of a substantial increase in interest rates is
low. We ultimately expect interest rates to begin to decrease by late 1996 as
slowing economic growth eases inflation fears.
 
A LONG-TERM FOCUS
 
This second half of 1996 could be characterized by a slowdown in activity as
investors' lack of clear investment direction leads to indecision. During these
"summer doldrums," investors have a chance to reinforce their long-term approach
to investing. The recent decline in stock prices has made many stocks more
attractive and represents good buying opportunities. In addition, the increase
in interest rates is providing an opportunity to capture additional income
through the bond sector, while maintaining moderate risk. While this provides a
good way to capture current income, it is critical not to shy away from the
longer-term potential. Although the financial markets are not without risks and
uncertainties, today's opportunities can provide the foundation for a long-term
investment plan.

long-term investment strategy. We offer a variety of Overland Express Funds to

  OVERLAND EXPRESS FUNDS, JULY 1996
 
                                                                         3

OVERLAND EXPRESS ASSET ALLOCATION FUND
 
Q. THE OVERLAND EXPRESS ASSET ALLOCATION FUND USES AN ASSET ALLOCATION STRATEGY.
   WHAT IS THE BASIS BEHIND THIS STRATEGY?
 
A. The Asset Allocation Fund uses a disciplined quantitative model to compare
risk and return for different asset classes. The model's recommendation is
driven by the expected returns of stocks, bonds and cash. Through time the model
will recommend different allocations to stocks, bonds and cash in order to
capture the best return without taking unreasonable risk.
 
Q. DURING 1994 AND 1995, STOCK AND BOND PRICES SEEMED TO MOVE TOGETHER. HOW HAVE
   THEY DONE RELATIVE TO ONE ANOTHER IN 1996?
 
A. The stock and bond markets are generally related, often moving together over
various time periods as we saw in 1994 and 1995. However, they are not
intrinsically linked. 1996 provides an example when we have seen an increase in
volatility between stocks and bonds. While equities have been steadily moving
upwards throughout the first two quarters of 1996, bonds have been steadily
moving in the opposite direction, providing a distinct counterpoint to the
situation over the previous two years.
 
Q. DURING THE FIRST HALF OF 1996, WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCED THE ALLOCATION OF THE
   FUND?
 
A. Beginning in January, the Fund gradually increased its allocation in U.S.
Treasury bonds as it viewed bonds as more attractive relative to stocks and cash
instruments. Beginning in January, the Fund's portfolio consisted approximately
of 96% in S&P 500 stocks and 4% in cash instruments. As bonds became
increasingly attractive, the allocation shifted to approximately 80% in S&P 500
stocks and 20% in U.S. Treasury bonds. As of June 30, 1996 the portfolio
consisted of approximately 70% in S&P 500 stocks, 28% in U.S. Treasury bonds and
2% in cash instruments.
 
Currently the asset allocation model indicates that equities are modestly
overvalued relative to bonds and bonds are fairly valued relative to cash.
However, significant changes in any of these markets could change this outlook
at any time during the year.
 
Q. THE FUND POSTED MODEST RETURNS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR. WHAT FACTORS
   AFFECTED THE PERFORMANCE?
 
A. The returns for stocks and bonds have been modest for the first six months of
1996 relative to the first six months of 1995. In addition to this, the returns
have been achieved in a comparatively stable stream. This means that there has
been little monthly variation between the returns of each asset class. When this
is the case, there is modest value to be gained from shifting across the asset
classes and, therefore, returns are unlikely to exceed the return of the best
performing asset class.
 
Q. WHAT IS THE INDUSTRY BREAKDOWN OF THE S&P 500?
 
A. As of 6/30/96, the industry breakdown is as follows: basic materials - 5.47%,
capital goods - 8.63%, consumer cyclicals - 13.42%, consumer staples - 13.06%,
energy - 8.71%, utilities - 8.61%, transportation - 1.60%, technology - 16.95%,
healthcare - 10.06%, finance - 13.49%.
 
THE S&P 500 INDEX IS A TRADEMARK OF STANDARD AND POOR'S CORPORATION AND IS AN
UNMANAGED INDEX THAT TRACKS THE PERFORMANCE OF 500 INDUSTRIAL, TRANSPORTATION,
UTILITY AND FINANCIAL COMPANIES.

OVERLAND EXPRESS CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE BOND FUND
 
DAVID KLUG, SENIOR TAX-EXEMPT SPECIALIST/PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. KLUG HAS MANAGED
MUNICIPAL BOND PORTFOLIOS FOR WELLS FARGO BANK FOR OVER TEN YEARS. PRIOR TO
JOINING WELLS FARGO BANK, HE MANAGED THE MUNICIPAL BOND PORTFOLIO FOR A MAJOR
PROPERTY AND CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY. HIS INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE EXCEEDS 20
YEARS AND INCLUDES ALL ASPECTS OF TAX-EXEMPT FIXED-INCOME INVESTMENTS. HE HOLDS
AN M.B.A. FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO AND IS A MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL
FEDERATION OF MUNICIPAL ANALYSTS AND ITS CALIFORNIA CHAPTER. HE HAS MANAGED THE
FUND SINCE ITS INCEPTION.
 
Q. THE OVERLAND EXPRESS CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE BOND FUND REMAINED COMPETITIVE WITH
   ITS BENCHMARK, THE LEHMAN BROTHERS MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX. WHAT FACTORS ARE
   TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION FOR SECURITY SELECTION?
 
A. The Fund seeks to provide investors with a high level of income exempt from
federal income taxes and California personal income taxes while maintaining high
credit quality. We consider a number of factors in security selection for the
Fund. Our main concern is maintaining high credit quality in the portfolio. We
attempt to do this by emphasizing investments in investment-grade bonds -- those
rated in one of the four highest categories by a national credit rating agency
such as Moody's or Standard and Poor's. We do not buy non-rated issues and more
than half of our holdings are AAA-rated. When we purchase insured credits, we
consider the underlying credit as well. We also consider a number of factors we
feel are important to high quality securities such as bond structure, call
protection on the bond and tax or revenue backing for the issue.
 
Q. THE ORANGE COUNTY BANKRUPTCY HAS FINALLY WORKED ITS WAY THROUGH THE COURTS.
   HOW DOES THIS AFFECT THE FUND?
 
A. The resolution of the Orange County bankruptcy has been a positive factor for
the California bond market. Non-Orange County issues should not be affected by
the bankruptcy on an ongoing basis.
 
The Fund does not hold any Orange County issues that are not credit enhanced
(for example, backed by a line of credit) or revenue-backed (backed by the
income from a particular project) so it is anticipated that the resolution of
the bankruptcy will have no direct impact on the Fund.
 
Q. WHAT STRATEGY WILL YOU TAKE FOR THE BALANCE OF 1996?
 
A. The Fund will continue to emphasize high credit quality and call protection
in its new purchases. We expect to remain neutral on the market for the balance
of 1996, not making any significant moves should the economic environment
continue. We will continue to seek to provide investors a high level of income
exempt from federal income taxes and from California personal income taxes while
preserving capital, by investing in medium- to long-term California municipal
securities.
 
THE LEHMAN BROTHERS MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX THAT INCLUDES
APPROXIMATELY 15,000 BONDS. INVESTORS SHOULD NOTE THAT THE FUND IS A
PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED MUTUAL FUND, WHILE THE INDEX IS UNMANAGED, DOES NOT INCUR
EXPENSES AND IS NOT AVAILABLE DIRECTLY FOR INVESTMENT.

OVERLAND EXPRESS CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUND
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUND PERFORM
   DURING 1996?
 
A. The Fund's simple yield for the seven day period as of June 30, 1996 was
2.68%. The Fund achieved its objective of seeking a high level of tax-free
income, capital preservation and liquidity.
 
Q. WHAT FACTORS IN THE SHORT-TERM TAX-EXEMPT BOND MARKET INFLUENCED MUNICIPAL
   BOND FUND PERFORMANCE?
 
A. The short-term tax-exempt market followed traditional seasonal patterns
during the first half of 1996. In April, tax-exempt money market funds
experienced large outflows around April 15 as individual investors withdrew
liquid assets to pay taxes. Beginning in June, the market became concerned about
the expected heavy cash inflows from large bond calls and redemptions occurring
on July 1, 1996. This bond call and redemption activity created an inflow of
cash into the marketplace and led to a demand for bonds thus causing yields to
decrease.
 
Q. WHAT STRATEGY WILL YOU TAKE FOR THE BALANCE OF 1996?
 
A. The Fund extended its average portfolio maturity from 44 days to 53 days
during the first two quarters of the year. Tax-free money market funds
traditionally extend their average days to maturity in June and July due to the
seasonal nature of the short-term tax-exempt market. Given current conditions,
the Fund will target an average maturity of 50 to 60 days for the remainder of
the year. We will also continue to maintain high credit quality as a primary
objective of the Fund.
 
ALTHOUGH THE FUND SEEKS TO MAINTAIN A $1.00 PER SHARE NET ASSET VALUE, THERE IS
NO ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL MEET THIS OBJECTIVE. AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS
NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY,
NOR BY WELLS FARGO BANK.
 
ANNUALIZED YIELD IS FOR THE 7-DAY PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1996. YIELD REFLECTS
FLUCTUATIONS IN INTEREST RATES ON PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS AND FUND EXPENSES. PAST
PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.

OVERLAND EXPRESS MONEY MARKET FUND
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS MONEY MARKET FUND -- CLASS A PERFORM DURING THE
   FIRST HALF OF 1996?
 
A. The Fund's seven day simple yield for the period ended June 30, 1996 was
4.78%. The Fund achieved its goal of maintaining principal stability at a $1.00
per share net asset value while providing competitive money market yields.
 
Q. HOW HAS 1996'S ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT INFLUENCED THE PERFORMANCE OF MONEY
   MARKET FUNDS IN GENERAL?
 
A. Led by strong housing and auto sales, a strong economy led the Fed to
consider tightening monetary policy and increasing the federal funds target
rate. As credit markets began to anticipate this move, interest rates continued
their ascent to higher yields. Generally as the Fed tightens monetary policy,
money market yields increase. The yield on three-month Treasury bills rose from
a second quarter low of 4.95% in early April to a high of 5.27% late in the
quarter. We believe that there is a strong likelihood that the Fed will increase
the federal funds target rate before the conclusion of the August 20, 1996 FOMC
meeting.
 
Q. WITHIN 1996'S ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT, WERE ANY CHANGES MADE TO THE PORTFOLIO?
 
A. As tighter monetary policy appeared increasingly imminent and short-term
yields rose, the weighted average days to maturity of the Fund was shortened
from 60 days at the beginning of the second quarter to approximately 49 days by
the end of the quarter. The weighted average days to maturity will remain
between 45 to 55 days under current market conditions.
 
Q. WHAT IS YOUR STRATEGY FOR THE REMAINDER OF 1996?
 
A. For the remainder of the year, under current market conditions, we will
continue to seek to provide investors with a high level of current income, while
preserving capital, by investing in high quality short-term securities. We will
continue our strategy of purchasing one- to three-month commercial paper and we
will increase our continued emphasis on common floating rate notes.
 
ALTHOUGH THE FUND SEEKS TO MAINTAIN A $1.00 PER SHARE NET ASSET VALUE, THERE IS
NO ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL MEET THIS OBJECTIVE. AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS
NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY,
NOR BY WELLS FARGO BANK.

OVERLAND EXPRESS MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
 
LAURA MILNER, TAX-EXEMPT SPECIALIST/MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MS. MILNER
JOINED WELLS FARGO BANK IN 1988. HER BACKGROUND INCLUDES OVER SEVEN YEARS'
EXPERIENCE SPECIALIZING IN SHORT- AND LONG-TERM MUNICIPAL SECURITIES WITH
SALOMON BROTHERS. SHE IS A MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF MUNICIPAL
ANALYSTS AND ITS CALIFORNIA CHAPTER.
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND PERFORM DURING THE FIRST
   HALF OF 1996?
 
A. During 1996's rising interest-rate environment, prices of longer-term bonds
fell at a faster rate than shorter-term bonds. The Fund underperformed its
benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, primarily because the
maturity of the securities contained in the portfolio were slightly longer than
those of the benchmark.
 
The Fund attempts to provide investors with a diversified portfolio of AAA-rated
tax-exempt securities. The Fund is managed in a manner that seeks to provide a
competitive level of current income by concentrating holdings in assets that are
subject to the alternative minimum tax ("AMT"). This combination of holdings in
assets subject to the AMT and holdings that are AAA - rated by Standard and
Poor's provides shareholders with a competitive return while minimizing credit
risk.
 
Q. THE FUND EMPHASIZES SECURITIES THAT ARE SUBJECT TO THE AMT. WHAT ARE THE
   ADVANTAGES OF INVESTING IN THESE TYPES OF SECURITIES?
 
A. The Fund purchases bonds subject to the AMT because they have generally
offered higher yields than non-AMT bonds. Investing in securities subject to the
AMT can provide higher yields without compromising credit quality. The yield
advantage of a bond subject to the AMT is approximately 0.10%-0.25% over a
non-AMT bond.
 
Q. DIVERSIFICATION IS IMPORTANT WHEN MANAGING CREDIT RISK. HOW MUCH
   DIVERSIFICATION IS THERE AMONG SECURITIES IN THE FUND? ARE THERE ANY OTHER
   FACTORS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN MANAGING CREDIT RISK?
 
A. The Fund holds no more than 25% of its assets in securities issued by any one
state and in general does not invest more than 5% of its assets in any one
issuer. We will continue to pursue this strategy of diversification, both
nationally and geographically. This should help protect the Fund's share price
from fluctuations tied to any one region's economy. The Fund is rated AAAf by
Standard and Poors. All of the Fund's holdings are considered AAA -rated as a
result of municipal bond insurance or agency guarantees provided by the
Government National Mortgage Association and the Federal Housing Administration.
 
Q. 1996 HAS HAD A RISING INTEREST-RATE ENVIRONMENT. HOW HAS THIS AFFECTED THE
   MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET IN GENERAL? WHAT TYPES OF CHANGES WILL BE MADE TO THE
   PORTFOLIO SHOULD THIS ENVIRONMENT CONTINUE?
 
A. In general, rising interest rates have caused the prices of longer-term bonds
to fall faster than those of shorter-term bonds. For the first half of the year,
the Fund's holdings were primarily longer-term bonds and this had a negative
impact on performance. Should this environment continue, we will purchase bonds
with shorter maturities in the 10-20 year part of the yield curve.
 
     10
<PAGE>
OVERLAND EXPRESS MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
 
Q. WHAT STRATEGY WILL BE TAKEN FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR?
 
A. The Fund intends to sell a portion of its longer-term housing bonds and
purchase non-housing bonds in the 10-20 year part of the yield curve. This
should shorten the Fund's duration and can be accomplished with minimal yield
loss. We will continue to pursue a strategy of diversification by issuer and
location which should help to protect the Fund's share price from fluctuations
tied to any one region's economy. We will also continue to emphasize securities
subject to the AMT.
 
THE LEHMAN BROTHERS MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX THAT INCLUDES
APPROXIMATELY 15,000 BONDS. INVESTORS SHOULD NOTE THAT THE FUND IS A
PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED MUTUAL FUND, WHILE THE INDEX IS UNMANAGED, DOES NOT INCUR
EXPENSES AND IS NOT AVAILABLE DIRECTLY FOR INVESTMENT.

(SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT-CORPORATE INCOME
MASTER PORTFOLIO)
 
JEFF L. WEAVER, TAXABLE LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT/CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. WEAVER
JOINED WELLS FARGO AFTER THREE YEARS AS A SHORT-TERM FIXED INCOME TRADER AND
PORTFOLIO MANAGER IN THE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT GROUP OF BANKERS TRUST COMPANY IN
NEW YORK. HE HOLDS A B.A. IN ECONOMICS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO AND IS A
CHARTERED FINANCIAL ANALYST CANDIDATE.
 
Q. WHAT INVESTMENT STRATEGY DOES THE OVERLAND EXPRESS SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT-
   CORPORATE INCOME FUND TAKE?
 
A. The Fund seeks to earn a high level of current income, while managing
principal volatility, by investing substantially all of its assets in
high-quality U.S. government and corporate bonds. The Fund's investment strategy
and security selection employs the business cycle analysis which involves
research of recurring events and trends in the economy. We look at criteria such
as yield curve positioning and sector allocation in determining the composition
of the portfolio.
 
Q. WHAT IS THE CURRENT PORTFOLIO ALLOCATION OF THE FUND? WHY?
 
A. Currently the Fund holds 96.3% of its portfolio invested in U.S. Treasury
notes and the remaining balance in cash instruments. Until the Fund achieves a
certain asset size (approximately $10 million), the investment adviser intends
to invest substantially all of the Fund's assets in U.S. Treasury bonds, notes,
bills and repurchase agreements.
 
Q. SHOULD INTEREST RATES CONTINUE TO RISE, HOW WILL THE FUND'S STRATEGY CHANGE
   IN THE MONTHS TO COME?
 
A. The Fund will take advantage of the steepening yield curve by investing a
portion of its assets in securities in the 18-month portion of the yield curve.
The Fund's duration will remain close to that of its one-year benchmark, the
Merrill Lynch 1 -Year Treasury Bill Index. As the Fund grows in size, we intend
to increase our emphasis on high-quality instruments issued by corporations.
 
THE SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT-CORPORATE INCOME FUND (THE "FEEDER") AND THE
SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT-CORPORATE INCOME MASTER PORTFOLIO (THE "MASTER") ARE
ORGANIZED AS A "MASTER-FEEDER" STRUCTURE. INSTEAD OF INVESTING DIRECTLY IN
INDIVIDUAL PORTFOLIO SECURITIES, THE FEEDER FUND, WHICH IS OFFERED TO THE
PUBLIC, HOLDS INTEREST IN THE MASTER FUND WHICH INVESTS IN INDIVIDUAL
SECURITIES. REFERENCES TO THE FUND ARE TO THE FEEDER OR MASTER, AS THE CONTEXT
REQUIRES. THE MASTER PORTFOLIO IS ADVISED BY WELLS FARGO BANK. INVESTORS SHOULD
NOTE THAT THE FUND IS A PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED MUTUAL FUND, WHILE THE MERRILL
LYNCH 1-YEAR TREASURY BILL INDEX IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX AND DOES NOT INCUR
EXPENSES.
 
AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY, NOR BY WELLS FARGO BANK.

CALIFORNIA CHAPTER. MS. MILNER HAS BEEN CO-MANAGING THE FUND SINCE ITS
INCEPTION.
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS SHORT-TERM MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND PERFORM DURING
   THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1996?
 
A. The Fund had a total return of 1.40% without load for the period ended June
30, 1996. The Fund's return resulted from 1996's rising interest-rate
environment as the municipal bond market reversed course and securities with
longer maturities outperformed those with shorter maturities.
 
Q. WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE PORTFOLIO THAT AFFECTED THE FUND'S
   PERFORMANCE?
 
A. The Fund's average maturity was shortened from 1.82 years to 1.66 years as
our expectations that the Fed would ease interest rates diminished. The Fund
also took advantage of the short-term interest-rate hike in February by
maintaining a larger than usual cash balance.
 
Q. WHAT FACTORS HAVE INFLUENCED THE FUND'S STRATEGY OVER THE LAST SIX MONTHS?
 
A. At the end of 1995, the economy appeared to be slowing down and it was
anticipated that the next move by the Fed would be an easing of interest rates.
In 1996, however, many statistics suggested that the economy would be fairly
strong despite low inflation. In light of the reduced possibility that the Fed
would lower interest rates to stimulate the economy, we changed our strategy
slightly and shortened the Fund's average maturity from 1.82 to 1.66 years.
 
Q. WHAT CRITERIA ARE USED WHEN PURCHASING SECURITIES FOR THE FUND?
 
A. Credit quality is the primary concern when purchasing securities for the
Fund. Yield curve analysis is also considered. We look at major trends in the
economy and we determine positions on the yield curve that appear to have the
best aging characteristics.
 
Q. THE FUND HOLDS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THE AMT. WHAT ARE
   THE ADVANTAGES OF HOLDING THESE TYPES OF SECURITIES?
 
A. The advantage of investing in securities subject to the AMT is that such
securities tend to offer a higher yield without compromising credit quality. The
Fund seeks to provide income that is federally tax-free for those who are not
subject to the AMT. Currently 90% of all taxpayers are not subject to the AMT.
Bonds subject to the AMT are issues where more than 10% of the proceeds benefit
 
     14

OVERLAND EXPRESS SHORT-TERM MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
(SHORT-TERM MUNICIPAL INCOME MASTER PORTFOLIO)
 
individuals or private entities. Interest from these bonds is included as a
"preference" item for individuals who calculate their taxes using the AMT
method. Because there are generally fewer buyers of AMT bonds, such bonds
generally yield more than their non-AMT counterparts.
 
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET IN GENERAL?
 
A. Some positive factors are occurring in the municipal bond market. Municipal
bonds have significantly outperformed Treasuries year-to-date. In periods of
high market volatility, such as we are currently experiencing, municipal bonds
also tend to perform better than their taxable counterparts. Another positive
factor involves redemptions of bonds which are coming due this year. 1996 will
be a big year for redemptions of older, outstanding bonds thus resulting in an
increase in cash and a demand for municipal bonds in the marketplace.
 
Q. WHAT IS YOUR STRATEGY FOR THE REMAINDER OF 1996?
 
A. We will continue to emphasize liquidity and high credit quality for the
remainder of the year. Should the current environment continue, we intend to
maintain the Fund's average maturity between 1.4 and 1.7 years, reduce the
Fund's cash position and invest in securities that fall in the 18 month to 30
month range of the yield curve.

OVERLAND EXPRESS STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND

JON HICKMAN, CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. HICKMAN HAS WORKED FOR WELLS FARGO BANK
SINCE 1986. HE HAS APPROXIMATELY 15 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT FIELD AND IS A MEMBER OF WELLS FARGO BANK'S EQUITY STRATEGY
COMMITTEE. MR. HICKMAN HAS A B.A. AND AN M.B.A. IN FINANCE FROM BRIGHAM YOUNG
UNIVERSITY AND HAS CO-MANAGED THE FUND SINCE ITS INCEPTION.
 
ROBERT BISSELL, CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. ROBERT BISSELL IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR
THE DAY-TO-DAY MANAGEMENT OF THE STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND AND HAS PERFORMED SUCH
DUTIES SINCE THE FUND'S INCEPTION. MR. BISSELL JOINED WELLS FARGO BANK AT THE
TIME OF THE MERGER WITH CROCKER BANK AND HAS BEEN WITH THE COMBINED ORGANIZATION
FOR OVER 20 YEARS. PRIOR TO JOINING WELLS FARGO BANK, HE WAS A VICE PRESIDENT
AND INVESTMENT COUNSELOR WITH M.H. EDIE INVESTMENT COUNSELING, WHERE HE MANAGED
INSTITUTIONAL AND HIGH-NET-WORTH PORTFOLIOS. MR. BISSELL HOLDS A FINANCE DEGREE
FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA. HE IS A CHARTERED FINANCIAL ANALYST AND A
MEMBER OF THE LOS ANGELES SOCIETY OF FINANCIAL ANALYSTS. HE HAS CO-MANAGED THE
FUND SINCE ITS INCEPTION.
 
Q. HOW DID THE STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND PERFORM DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF THE
   YEAR AND WHAT FACTORS CONTRIBUTED TO ITS PERFORMANCE?
 
A. During the first six months of 1996, the Fund continued to outperform both
the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 2000 Index. Our continued focus on earnings
growth and emphasis on companies with strong management teams were two key
factors contributing to this strong performance. On a broader scale, positive
earnings results reported by a majority of the companies in the portfolio,
particularly those in the technology, health care and energy sectors, fueled
stock price appreciation. The Fund focused on market leaders in these sectors
and generated above-average performance. Five of the Fund's top six holdings
gained over 15%, with Intel warrants and Cicso Systems leading the pack, each
posting approximately a 50% return. Among the top holdings were Oracle
Corporation with a 39.60% return, HealthSouth Corporation posting 23.60%,
Genesis Health Ventures posting a 24.57% and Komag Inc., posting a return of
15%.
 
Another factor affecting the Fund involves a trend occurring in the financial
markets. The continued inflow of money into equity mutual funds during the first
half of 1996 spurred high demand for equity stocks, especially those of emerging
growth companies. This demand had a positive impact on the market and on the
Fund's portfolio.
 
Q. WHAT STRATEGY DO YOU APPLY IN STOCK SELECTION FOR THE FUND?
 
A. Our investment strategy is based on the belief that earnings growth drives
stock prices. We invest in companies with the potential for well above-average
earnings growth. There are also a number of other factors we consider as part of
our long-term strategy. One key criterion for buying a stock is management.
Management is measured by experience, depth and ownership of the company's
stock. A company will not become a core holding in the portfolio until we have
met with management. In addition to management, we look for companies with a
dominant market share, technological leadership, a strong balance sheet and some
competitive advantage over other companies in their industry.

OVERLAND EXPRESS STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND
(CAPITAL APPRECIATION MASTER PORTFOLIO)
 
Q. THE FEDERAL FUNDS TARGET RATE HAS BEEN HELD STEADY DESPITE THE CONTINUED
   UNCERTAINTY OF AN INCREASE IN INTEREST RATES. HOW HAS THIS UNCERTAINTY
   AFFECTED THE FUND?
 
A. At the end of the second quarter, in the face of rising interest rates as
well as economic uncertainty, money managers have started to sell stocks back
into the market place. This recent activity depressed prices and presented the
Fund with an opportunity to buy stocks with superior earnings growth at very
reasonable prices. We continue to expect a slowing economy and low inflation. We
expect good earnings growth in select companies to eventually calm the near-term
concerns and uncertainty that many investors and money managers are feeling.
 
Q. WHAT SECTORS DID THE FUND EMPHASIZE IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR?
 
A. The Fund emphasized the telecommunication and energy sectors. Within the
telecommunications sector, digital transmission has become the communication
medium of choice with new technology being developed continuously. This trend
has opened many new opportunities for digital equipment and telecommunication
service providers. An example of a position the Fund currently holds is LCI
International, one of the nation's largest long-distance carriers. We will
continue to look at companies like LCI which provide worldwide voice and data
transmission services through fiberoptic networks.
 
The energy sector showed strength during the first half of the year with the
price of oil and gas exceeding analyst expectations. The Fund paid particular
attention to the oil servicing industry, adding positions in companies that
develop and market oil related services such as drilling and refining. Two
companies that were added to the portfolio were Kelly Oil and Gas and Sonat
Offshore Drilling Incorporated.
 
Q. WHAT SECTORS WILL THE FUND LOOK AT IN THE UPCOMING MONTHS AND WHY?
 
A. Our strategy is to buy companies that have an earnings growth rate exceeding
15% and are selling at a price/earnings ratio ("P/E") less than the growth rate.
Although our investment choices are not specifically sector driven, we do
continue to find great investment opportunities in the technology and
bio-technology sectors, especially given the recent decline in prices in the
market.
 
The Fund will continue to look at the information storage industry . With the
continued growth in electronic media and digital storage, demand for disk drive
components and information storage equipment is high and is expected to grow as
much as 30% this year. As this demand for an increased capability to store
information continues, the Fund will maintain its focus on companies within this
sector.
 
The biotechnology sector also shows strength. Revolutionary drugs are being
developed and a demand for ways to administer these drugs comfortably to
patients is increasing. We will look at companies which develop and attempt to
perfect drug delivery systems. Two that were recently added to the portfolio are
Anesta Corporation and Matrix Pharmaceuticals. Both companies develop products
that assist in administering medication easily and effectively to patients.
 
                                                                         17

Q. THERE HAS BEEN MUCH SAID IN THE MEDIA ABOUT THE POPULARITY OF INITIAL PUBLIC
   OFFERINGS (IPOs). What position does the Fund take with IPOs?
 
A. The Fund may participate in a particular IPO when the issue meets the overall
investment criteria. The Fund provides cost-effective access for the individual
investor to participate in the IPO market. With an established presence on Wall
Street, the Fund's adviser, Wells Fargo Bank, is able to secure shares of
otherwise hard to obtain IPOs.
 
Q. WHAT IS THE FUND'S STRATEGY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR?
 
A. In the upcoming months, given the current market conditions, the Fund's
exposure to both the health care sector and technology sector will be
maintained. The Fund will continue to seek stocks with superior earnings growth
selling at reasonable valuation levels. We will also continue to invest broadly
across different sectors in order to achieve diversification in an attempt to
moderate investment risk.

THE STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND IS ORGANIZED AS A "MASTER-FEEDER" STRUCTURE. INSTEAD
OF INVESTING DIRECTLY IN INDIVIDUAL PORTFOLIO SECURITIES, THE FEEDER FUND, WHICH
IS OFFERED TO THE PUBLIC, HOLDS INTEREST IN THE CAPITAL APPRECIATION MASTER
PORTFOLIO (THE "MASTER PORTFOLIO") WHICH IN TURN, INVESTS IN INDIVIDUAL
SECURITIES. THE MASTER PORTFOLIO WAS CREATED BY CONVERTING THE EXISTING
STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND TO THE MASTER PORTFOLIO. REFERENCES TO THE FUND ARE TO THE
FEEDER OR MASTER, AS THE CONTEXT REQUIRES. THE CONVERSION TO THE MASTER
PORTFOLIO OCCURRED ON 2/20/96. THE MASTER PORTFOLIO IS ADVISED BY WELLS FARGO
BANK.

PAUL SINGLE, SENIOR TAXABLE SPECIALIST/CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. SINGLE HAS
MANAGED TAXABLE BOND PORTFOLIOS FOR OVER A DECADE WITH SPECIFIC EXPERTISE IN
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES ("MBS"). PRIOR TO JOINING WELLS FARGO BANK IN EARLY
1988, HE WAS A SENIOR PORTFOLIO MANAGER FOR BENHAM CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP. MR.
SINGLE RECEIVED HIS B.S. FROM SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE. HE HAS CO-MANAGED THE FUND
SINCE ITS INCEPTION.
 
SCOTT SMITH, CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. SMITH JOINED WELLS FARGO BANK IN 1988 AS
A TAXABLE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO SPECIALIST. HIS EXPERIENCE INCLUDES A POSITION
WITH A PRIVATE MONEY MANAGEMENT FIRM CONDUCTING MUTUAL FUND INVESTMENT
OPERATIONS. MR. SMITH HOLDS A B.A. DEGREE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF SAN DIEGO AND
IS A CHARTERED FINANCIAL ANALYST.
 
Q. THE OVERLAND EXPRESS U.S. GOVERNMENT INCOME FUND POSTED COMPETITIVE
   PERFORMANCE DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR. WHAT CRITERIA ARE USED IN
   SECURITY SELECTION IN ORDER TO MEET ITS OBJECTIVES?
 
A. The Fund invests in a portfolio consisting of securities issued or guaranteed
by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Criteria for
security selection are dictated by current market conditions. The rise in
interest rates over the six months ended June 30, 1996 had a positive impact on
mortgage-backed securities by reducing the refinancing of mortgages and
consequently lessening pre-payment risk. With this in mind, we focused on
higher-yielding securities. To reach this goal, restructuring the mortgage
portfolio to "seasoned" Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA")
securities was necessary since these are typically higher-paying securities to
which can be attributed less pre-payment risk.
 
Q. DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS WHAT ECONOMIC FACTORS INFLUENCED THE FUND?
 
A. During the first six months, expectations of an economic slow down
disappeared as the U.S. economy displayed surprising strength. Interest rates
rose steadily due in part to strong gains in employment, retail and auto sales,
as well as to a stronger than expected housing sector.
 
Prepayment risk of fixed-rate mortgages decreased as interest rates continued to
increase. The Fund held a large allocation of seasoned higher-coupon mortgages
which performed well in this economic environment. However, the Fund also held
some longer duration treasury securities that had poor price performance due to
the increase in interest rates. We have begun to sell a portion of these
securities and intend to do so as interest rates increase.
 
Q. WHAT IS YOUR ECONOMIC OUTLOOK FOR THE REMAINDER OF 1996 AND HOW WILL THIS
   AFFECT THE FUND'S STRATEGY?
 
A. We expect the U.S. economy to continue to grow. We expect the long bond yield
to fluctuate in the range of 6.75% to 7.75%, and we look for short-term rates to
remain below 6.00%. Within this environment, the Fund will take on a more
defensive posture, reducing its sensitivity to increases in market interest
rates.
 
AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY, NOR BY WELLS FARGO BANK.

OVERLAND EXPRESS U.S. TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND -- CLASS A
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS U.S. TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND-CLASS A PERFORM
   DURING 1996?
 
A. The Fund's seven day simple yield as of June 30, 1996 was 4.52%. The Fund
achieved its objective of maintaining principal stability at a $1.00 per share
net asset value while providing competitive money market yields.
 
Q. HOW HAS 1996'S ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT INFLUENCED THE PERFORMANCE OF MONEY
   MARKET FUNDS IN GENERAL?
 
A. Led by strong housing and auto sales, a strong economy led the Fed to
consider tightening monetary policy and increasing the federal funds target
rate. As credit markets began to anticipate this move, interest rates continued
their ascent. Generally as the Fed tightens monetary policy, money market yields
increase. The yield on three-month Treasury bills rose from a second quarter low
of 4.95% in early April to a high of 5.27% late in the quarter. We believe that
there is a strong likelihood that the Fed will increase the federal funds target
rate before the conclusion of the August 20, 1996 FOMC meeting.
 
Q. GIVEN 1996'S ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT, WERE THERE ANY CHANGES MADE TO THE
   PORTFOLIO?
 
A. As tighter monetary policy appeared increasingly imminent and short-term
yields rose, the weighted average maturity of the Fund was shortened slightly
during the quarter. We intend to maintain the weighted average days to maturity
between 45 to 55 days under current market conditions.
 
Q. WHAT IS THE CURRENT COMPOSITION OF THE PORTFOLIO?
 
A. As of June 30, 1996, the Fund's portfolio was comprised entirely of U.S.
Treasury bills.
 
ALTHOUGH THE FUND SEEKS TO MAINTAIN A $1.00 PER SHARE NET ASSET VALUE, THERE IS
NO ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL MEET THIS OBJECTIVE.
 
AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY, NOR BY WELLS FARGO BANK.
 
ANNUALIZED YIELD IS FOR THE 7-DAY PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1996. YIELD REFLECTS

OVERLAND EXPRESS VARIABLE RATE GOVERNMENT FUND
 
PAUL SINGLE, SENIOR TAXABLE SPECIALIST/CO-PORTFOLIO MANAGER. MR. SINGLE HAS
MANAGED TAXABLE BOND PORTFOLIOS FOR OVER A DECADE WITH SPECIFIC EXPERTISE IN
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES. PRIOR TO JOINING WELLS FARGO BANK IN EARLY 1988, HE
WAS A SENIOR PORTFOLIO MANAGER FOR BENHAM CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP. MR. SINGLE

A TAXABLE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO SPECIALIST. HIS EXPERIENCE INCLUDES A POSITION
WITH A PRIVATE MONEY MANAGEMENT FIRM CONDUCTING MUTUAL FUND INVESTMENT
OPERATIONS. MR. SMITH HOLDS A B.A. DEGREE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF SAN DIEGO.
 
Q. HOW DID THE OVERLAND EXPRESS VARIABLE RATE GOVERNMENT FUND PERFORM IN THE
   FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR?
 
A. The Fund had a total return of 1.51% for class A shares and a 1.25% for class
D shares for the period ended June 30, 1996. The Fund seeks to provide
shareholders with a high level of current income, while reducing principal
volatility. We invest in adjustable-rate mortgage securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities.
 
Q. IN LIGHT OF RISING INTEREST RATES, HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED IN THE LAST
   SIX MONTHS? WHAT CHANGES IF ANY WERE MADE TO THE PORTFOLIO?
 
A. Expectations of an economic slowdown disappeared as the U.S. economy
displayed surprising vitality. Interest rates rose steadily due in part to
strong gains in employment, retail and auto sales, as well as to a stronger than
expected housing sector.
 
Prepayment risk of adjustable-rate mortgages ("ARMs") decreased as interest
rates increased. The Fund held some Federal National Mortgage Association and
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Association ARMs which performed well due to
expectations of higher-coupon income from the higher interest rates. The Fund
also had an allocation of Government National Mortgage Association ARMs. These
securities had slightly poorer performance due to their sensitivity to
interest-rate increases.
 
Q. WHAT IS YOUR ECONOMIC OUTLOOK FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR AND HOW WILL THIS
   AFFECT THE FUND?
 
A. We believe that the U.S. economy will continue to grow at an above-average
rate. We expect the long-bond yield to fluctuate between 6.75% and 7.75%, and we
look for short-term rates to remain below 6.00%. In this environment, the Fund
will take on a more defensive posture. We will also continue to monitor
prepayment risk of the ARMs in the portfolio.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Overland Express Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series
investment company. The Company commenced operations on April 7, 1988 and
includes eleven separate diversified funds: the Asset Allocation, Money Market,
Municipal Income, National Tax-Free Institutional Money Market, Overland Sweep,
Short-Term Government-Corporate Income, Short-Term Municipal Income, Strategic
Growth, U.S. Government Income, U.S. Treasury Money Market and Variable Rate
Government Funds, and two non-diversified funds: the California Tax-Free Bond
and California Tax-Free Money Market Funds. The financial statements and notes
for the Overland Sweep Fund and the National Tax-Free Institutional Money Market
Fund are presented separately.
 
Each of the funds presented in this book (the "Funds"), with the exception of
the Money Market, California Tax-Free Money Market, Short-Term
Government-Corporate Income, Short-Term Municipal Income and U.S. Treasury Money
Market Funds, commenced offering Class D shares on July 1, 1993. The U.S.
Treasury Money Market and Money Market Funds commenced offering Class I shares
on June 20, 1994 and August 18, 1994, respectively. The Short-Term
Government-Corporate Income and Short-Term Municipal Income Funds each offers a
single class of shares. The three classes of shares differ principally in their
respective sales charges (if any), service fees, and distribution fees.
Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that
particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund and earn
income from the portfolio, pro rata based on the average daily net assets of
each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are declared
separately for each class. Gains are allocated to each class pro rata based upon
net assets of each class on the date of distribution. No class has preferential
dividend rights. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from
the relative weightings of pro rata income and gain allocations and from
differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and service fees.
 
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the
Company in the preparation of its financial statements, and such policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for investment
companies.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
INVESTMENT POLICY AND SECURITY VALUATION
 
Investments in securities for which the primary market is a national securities
exchange or the Nasdaq National Market System are valued at the last reported
sales price on the day of valuation. U.S. Government obligations are valued at
the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. In the absence of any
sale of such securities on the valuation date and in the case of other
securities, excluding debt securities maturing in 60 days or less, the
valuations are based on latest quoted bid
 
    120

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
prices. Debt securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost. Debt securities other than those maturing in 60 days or less and other
than U.S. Government obligations are valued at the latest quoted bid price.
Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair
value as determined by procedures approved by the Board of Directors.
 
The California Tax-Free Money Market, Money Market and U.S. Treasury Money
Market Funds use the amortized cost method to value their portfolio securities
and seek to maintain constant net asset values of $1.00 per share. There is no
assurance these Funds will meet this objective. The amortized cost method
involves valuing a security at its cost and amortizing any discount or premium
over the period until maturity, which approximates market value.
 
The California Tax-Free Money Market, Money Market, and U.S. Treasury Money
Market Funds invest in securities with remaining maturities not exceeding 397
days (thirteen months), including obligations of the U.S. Government, bankers
acceptances, commercial paper and certain floating-and variable-rate
instruments. Certain of these floating- and variable-rate instruments may carry
a demand feature that would permit the holder to tender them back to the issuer
at par value prior to maturity.
 
The Strategic Growth, Short-Term Government-Corporate Income and Short-Term
Municipal Income Funds invest only in interests ("Interests") of the Capital
Appreciation Master Portfolio, Short-Term Government-Corporate Income Master
Portfolio and Short-Term Municipal Income Master Portfolio (the "Master
Portfolios"), respectively, of Master Investment Trust (the "Trust"). Each
Master Portfolio has the same investment objective as the Fund bearing the
corresponding name. The value of each Fund's investment in its corresponding
Master Portfolio reflects that Fund's interest in the net assets of that Master
Portfolio. As of June 30, 1996, the Strategic Growth, Short-Term
Government-Corporate Income and Short-Term Municipal Income Funds owned
approximately 83.20%, 99.99% and 99.99% of the outstanding Interests of the
Capital Appreciation Master Portfolio, Short-Term Government-Corporate Income
Master Portfolio and Short-Term Municipal Income Master Portfolio. The Master
Portfolios' investments include equities, fixed-, variable-, and floating-rate
instruments. Certain of these floating- and variable-rate instruments may carry
a demand feature that would permit the holder to tender them back to the issuer
at par value prior to maturity. Except for debt obligations with remaining
maturities of 60 days or less, which are valued at amortized cost, assets are
valued at current market prices, or if such prices are not readily available, at
fair value as determined by procedures approved by the Trust's Board of
Trustees.
 
Cash equivalents relating to firm commitment purchase agreements are segregated
by the custodian and may not be sold without appropriate replacement while any
firm commitment purchase agreement is outstanding.
 
                                                                        121

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION
 
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased
or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and
interest income is accrued daily. Realized gains or losses are reported on the
basis of identified cost of securities delivered. Bond discounts are accreted
and premiums are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code.
 
TBA PURCHASE COMMITMENTS
 
The Variable Rate Government Fund enters into "TBA" (to be announced) purchase
commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond
customary settlement time. Although the unit price of a TBA has been established
when the contract is entered, the principal value will not be finalized until
settlement. However, the amount of the commitment will not fluctuate more than
2% from the principal amount. The Fund holds, and maintains until the settlement
date, cash or high-quality debt obligations in an amount sufficient to meet the
purchase price. TBA purchase commitments may be considered securities in
themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be
purchased declines prior to the settlement date. This risk is in addition to the
risk of decline in the value of the Fund's other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase
commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities,
generally according to the procedures described under "Security Valuation"
above.
 
Although the Fund generally enters into TBA purchase commitments with the
intention of acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of a
commitment prior to settlement if the Fund's adviser deems it appropriate to do
so.
 
TBA purchase commitments at June 30, 1996 were as follows:

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
 
Transactions involving purchases of securities under agreements to resell
("repurchase agreements") are treated as collateralized financing transactions
and are recorded at their contracted resale amounts. These repurchase
agreements, if any, are detailed in each Fund's or Master Portfolio's Portfolio
of Investments. The Funds' and Master Portfolios' adviser pools the cash and
invests in repurchase agreements entered into by the Funds and Master
Portfolios. The repurchase agreements must be fully collateralized based on
values that are marked to market daily. The collateral is held by an agent bank.
It is the adviser's responsibility to value collateral daily and to obtain
additional collateral as necessary to maintain market value equal to or greater
than the resale price. The repurchase agreements held in the Funds and Master
Portfolios at June 30, 1996 are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or federal
agency obligations. The repurchase agreements were entered into on June 28,
1996.

prospectuses and other promotional materials by paying on an annual basis up to
the greater of $100,000 or 0.05% of the Class A shares of a Fund's average daily
net assets for costs incurred. Each Fund may participate in joint distribution
activities with the other Funds, in which event expenses reimbursed out of the
assets of one of the Funds may be attributable, in part, to the distribution-
related activities of another Fund. Generally, the expenses of joint
distribution activities are allocated among the Funds in proportion to their
relative net asset sizes.
 
The Company also has adopted separate distribution plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the 1940 Act, whereby on behalf of Class A shares of the Asset Allocation,
Money Market, Municipal Income, Strategic Growth, U.S. Treasury Money Market and
Variable Rate Government Funds and shares of the Short-Term Government-Corporate
and Short-Term Municipal Income Funds, a Fund may pay Stephens, as compensation
for distribution-related services, a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to
0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund's shares.
Payments under the Distribution Plan for the Class A shares of the Municipal
Income Fund currently are capped by WFB and Stephens at the annual rate of 0.15%
of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares. The Class D Distribution
Plan of the Asset Allocation Fund and Strategic Growth Fund provides that a Fund
may pay the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.75% of each
such Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class D shares. The Class D
Distribution Plan for the California Tax-Free Bond, Municipal Income, U.S.
Government Income and Variable Rate Government Funds may pay Stephens, as
compensation for distribution-related services, a monthly fee at annual rates of
up to 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund's Class D
shares.

6.   REORGANIZATION OF THE STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND INTO A MASTER/FEEDER STRUCTURE
 
At a special meeting of the shareholders held on December 5, 1995, shareholders
of the Strategic Growth Fund approved a reorganization of the Fund into a
"master-feeder" structure, whereby the existing Fund invests all of its assets
in a corresponding Master Portfolio of the Master Investment Trust, an open-end
series investment company. On the conversion date the Fund transferred all of
its
 
                                                                        129

investments to the corresponding Master Portfolio. The Fund then became a
"feeder" fund. This reorganization was effected in February 1996. The
reorganization had no impact to shareholders of the existing fund except that
the advisory fee was contractually reduced.
 
7.   VARIABLE RATE GOVERNMENT FUND LITIGATION
 
A purported class action lawsuit was filed on March 14, 1995 in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of California by Conrad D.
Schaefer and Diane L. Schaefer, Trustees for the Schaefer Family Trust of 1992
against the Overland Express Variable Rate Government Fund, WFB and Wells Fargo
& Company. Plaintiffs voluntarily withdrew that complaint and served defendants
with a First Amended Complaint, also a putative class action, on June 2, 1995.
In the First Amended Complaint, as in the original complaint, plaintiffs sought
to sue on behalf of persons who bought the fund during the period from January
1, 1991 and March 10, 1995, alleging that defendants violated the Securities Act
of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the 1940 Act and common law by,
among other things, failing to disclose adequately the risks of investing in the
Fund. By Order dated October 30, 1995, the Court granted defendants' motions to
dismiss the First Amended Complaint in its entirety. The Court dismissed certain
claims with prejudice, but gave plaintiffs permission to replead other claims.
 
On January 11, 1996, plaintiffs served defendants with a Second Amended
Complaint. The Second Amended Complaint names Stephens as an additional
defendant and changes the alleged Class to those who purchased, acquired or held
shares of the Fund from June 30, 1993 through December 31, 1994. The Second
Amended Complaint seeks to assert claims under federal and California securities
laws and common law relating to alleged misstatements and omissions in the
prospectuses, reports and marketing materials pertaining to the Fund; it alleges
that the Class as a whole suffered substantial, but unspecified damages in
connection with the purchase of securities covered by the Fund's offering
documents over the course of the specified period. On June 3, 1996, the Court
conditionally certified a Class consisting of all purchasers of Fund shares who
allegedly suffered damages as a result of their purchase. Management of the
Company continues to believe it has meritorious defenses against the suit and
intends to defend vigorously against the suit.

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The Capital Appreciation Master Portfolio, Short-Term Municipal Income Master
Portfolio and Short-Term Government-Corporate Income Master Portfolio (the
"Master Portfolios") are three series of Master Investment Trust (the "Trust"),
a business trust organized under the laws of Delaware on August 14, 1991. The
Trust is registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Declaration of Trust permits the issuance
of beneficial interests ("interests"). The Trust currently issues eight series
of interests: the Asset Allocation, Capital Appreciation, Cash Investment Trust,
Corporate Stock, Tax-Free Money Market, Short-Term Government-Corporate Income,
Short-Term Municipal Income and U.S. Government Allocation Master Portfolios.
These financial statements and notes to the financial statements represent only
the Capital Appreciation, Short-Term Government-Corporate and Short-Term
Municipal Income Master Portfolios.
 
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the
Trust in the preparation of its financial statements, and such policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for investment
companies. These financial statements represent only the Capital Appreciation,
Short-Term Government-Corporate Income and Short-Term Municipal Income Master
Portfolios.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
INVESTMENT POLICY AND SECURITY VALUATION
 
Each Master Portfolio's investments include equities, fixed-, variable- and
floating-rate instruments. Investments in securities for which the primary
market is a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market System
are valued at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. U.S.
government obligations are valued at the stated mean between the last reported
bid and ask prices. Securities not listed on an exchange or national securities
market, or securities in which there were no transactions, excluding debt
securities maturing in 60 days or less, are valued at the most recent bid
prices, or if such prices are not readily available, at fair value as determined
in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities
maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates
market value. Except during temporary defensive periods, the Short-Term
Government-Corporate Income and Short-Term Municipal Income Master Portfolios
each seek to maintain an average weighted maturity ranging from 90 days to 2
years.
 
                                                                        135

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION
 
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased
or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date,
interest income is accrued daily. Realized gains and losses are reported on the
basis of identified cost of securities delivered. Bond discounts are accreted
and premiums are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code.
 
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
Each Master Portfolio intends to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a
partnership. Management of each Master Portfolio therefore believes that it will
not be subject to any federal or state income tax on its income and net capital
gains (if any). However, each investor in a Master Portfolio will be taxed on
its distributive share of the partnership's income for purposes of determining
its federal and state income tax liabilities. The determination of such share
will be made in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
("Code"), and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
 
It is intended that the Master Portfolios' assets, income, gain/loss and
allocations will be managed in such a way that a regulated investment company
investing in the Master Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of
Subchapter M of the Code, assuming that the investment company invests all of
its assets in the Master Portfolio.
 
ORGANIZATION EXPENSES
 
Costs incurred in connection with organization and initial registration as an
investment company under the 1940 Act were advanced by Stephens Inc.
("Stephens"). Organization expenses of each series are being amortized on a
straight line basis over 60 months from the date the series of the Trust
commenced operation.
 
2.   AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
The Trust has entered into separate advisory contracts with WFB on behalf of
each Master Portfolio. Pursuant to the contracts, WFB furnishes investment
guidance and policy direction in connection with daily portfolio management of
each Master Portfolio. Under the contract, WFB is entitled to receive a monthly
advisory fee at an annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net assets.
 
The Trust has also entered into a contract with WFB whereby WFB has agreed to
provide custody services for each Master Portfolio. For providing these
services, WFB is entitled to be compensated for custody services based on a rate
of 0.0167% of the average daily net assets of each Master Portfolio.
